Water + cold + humidity have lead to about 10 spots of mold I've found. mostly in the new building which has had some soupy mud and puddles forming. Dozer came, tried fixing some of my issues... we'll see if it works with the next real rain. working on rounding some cash up for more gravel and fabric around the buildings, but this should work for now.

have you considered gutters on the greenhouses and harvesting all the rain to use for watering?

might not cost more than the dozing and your plants would love it.

Can't wait to see your monsters this fall!

Yes, but this year spring was dry as a bone and most of the summer has been too. It wasn't consistent enough to use for the watering. The gutter kits run about $700 per 100 feet from the manufacturer. For water consistency, I'd rather use the ground. Going to poke a hole in the ground this year for sure.

We've had a awesome year so far and looking back on the pics from last year I think I'm about a week ahead of last year by the looks of things. I've been questioning myself a lot but staying organic. Starting to dive into Plant Nutrition with Grow University and Harley Smith. Other than being a total sales rep for NPK Industries theres a lot of knowledge to gain!

Good thing you didn't right off the local gear to soon. Just got done running some of Mota's gear and I was very impressed. I know he is from that side of the bridge.

One down, anyone from Michigan watching needs to get off the computer and go talk to their Representative IN PERSON because this will be the last year for guys like me (and any other caregiver out there) if they get their new package of bills passed.

Colorado company MJ Freeway is pushing seed-to-sale tracking, opening the door for mega "provisioning centers" and generally fucking everyone whose been involved in this program since the start.

GET OUT THERE AND TELL YOUR REP TO VOTE NO NO NO!!!

Hey sho long time no talk man, hope everything is going well. I had no idea about the new bills trying to be passed, I am going to try and make it to my representative asap to talk to him about the upcoming vote. And also talk to my circle of friends about getting the word out as well. Unfortunately I'm not as up to date as I should be about the possible upcoming changes but this one could affect alot of us. Basically fucking us.

its only a matter of time before everything goes legal boys and the market is opened. The idea of a free market is really cool I think, but it will be far from that. The big Corps in this country see the MJ industry as a $200B untapped market. They have already started strangling the supply and taking out would-be future competitors in the market. Bill Schutte invested $1M of his personal dollars into marketing and promoting the MMJ act, and then raids and smashes and trashes every caregiver and dispo he can get his hands on.He saw the opportunity to have his big companies roll in and take a big share or all of the market, but hey, not everybody drinks Budweiser. As long as they leave us a legal avenue to produce our small batch artisan, or craft products and medicines we will be fine. Also the competition will cause the cream to rise boys. There are other ways to make money in this industry if you stay out in front of it. Joesy trademarked his strain that way the big companies will have to license it from him. I hope it all works out for us, but after a motion we had last week to toss a search warrant, that was only acquired due to the police securing the house for "officer safety" and smell alone, while knowing we were patients...was upheld by the Washtenaw county circuit court, Im ready to leave this state, and prolly more accurately this country. we have no 4th amendment anymore....I wish everybody a happy and safe harvest.

God damn. Looks like we're all getting run over. I've been thinking about leaving California (after the bills they've put on the governor's desk), and Michigan was on the short list. A lot will be changing in the next few months, but this seems to be the general model they're following. They're not trying to let people grow their own, and definitely not trying to allow small boutique producers.

Best of luck to you guys over there.

I've apparently got pnumenonia, 3 down and 24 ready to go like... Now. I can't barely stand and breathe but I still managed to out trim my trimmers.

Just quick update after new antibiotics today I'll hopefully be back at it by this weekend.

Plus cold weather moving in and mold showing up everywhere... Ahhhhh!
